Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaBen Barnes (Young Dunstan Thorn) was a fan favorite and the preferred choice for Tristan over Charlie Cox, as he was considered more attractive. Matthew Vaughn intentionally cast the then-unknown Cox over big name actors like Orlando Bloom, as he wanted an actor who could play a dork and easily transition into a suave and handsome gentleman.
- GoofsWhen Yvaine and Captain Shakespeare are dancing, Robert De Niro's hearing aid can be seen in his ear.
- Quotes
Yvaine: You know when I said I knew little about love? That wasn't true. I know a lot about love. I've seen it, centuries and centuries of it, and it was the only thing that made watching your world bearable. All those wars. Pain, lies, hate... It made me want to turn away and never look down again. But when I see the way that mankind loves. You could search to the furthest reaches of the universe and never find anything more beautiful. So yes, I know that love is unconditional. But I also know that it can be unpredictable, unexpected, uncontrollable, unbearable, and strangely easy to mistake for loathing, and... What I'm trying to say, Tristan is... I think I love you. Is this love, Tristan? I never imagined I'd know it for myself. My heart... It feels like my chest can barely contain it. Like it's trying to escape because it doesn't belong to me anymore. It belongs to you. And if you wanted it, I'd wish for nothing in exchange, no gifts, no goods, no demonstrations of devotion. Nothing but knowing you loved me too. Just your heart, in exchange for mine.
